1. How Can I Find Someone to Adopt My Baby Right Now?

2. Can I Find a Family Without an Agency?: What to Know Before Choosing Independent Adoption
Yes. This is called independent adoption, where you work directly with the adoptive family and hire legal professionals separately. Some birth mothers choose this path when they’ve already found a family through friends, relatives, or online.
But it’s important to know:
- Independent adoption is not legal in all states
- You may not receive the same emotional or financial support
- You’ll need to coordinate legal and counseling services on your own
Even if you already have a family in mind, an agency can help you complete the process safely and for free.

3. Is It Risky to Find a Family on Your Own? Here’s What You Need to Know
Trying to find someone to adopt your baby without an agency can create unexpected risks:
- Legal issues: Adoption laws vary by state; without proper guidance, your adoption may not be valid
- Financial risk: Independent adoptions often don’t provide free support or pregnancy-related assistance
- Emotional stress: Without an advocate, it can be emotionally overwhelming to navigate alone
Licensed agencies are regulated and ensure that both you and the baby are protected throughout the process.
Independent adoption can be legal but risky. Without an agency, you may lack emotional support, legal guidance, and financial assistance. Always consult a licensed professional before pursuing this route.
